Introducing Daily Designs & Sentiments

Alli Miles has a knack of designing stamps that not only stay true to her hip modern style, but that incorporate a versatility that can't be matched. Her new introductions this month are no different.

Daily Designs is a set of eight tag frames & patterns that include a variety of small companion images, covering everything from Easter to Father's Day to Baby. You are all familiar with the ease of use you have found with our previous tag sets, such as Holiday Tags and Tags for Spring. Alli has now designed her very own comprehensive set that embodies a versatile mix with year-round capabilities.

The details.

Daily Designs will be available for sale on January 15th.

It will retail for $24.

It contains a total of 25 stamps (8 tag images and 17 companion images.)

You can't have images without sentiments! Alli also designed a companion sentiment set that contains something for every season, holiday and event you can dream up!

The details.

Daily Designs Sentiments will be available for sale on January 15th.

It will retail for $15.

It contains a total of 26 sentiments.

Alli has already been super busy this week posting some AMAZING quick & easy card samples (you can see them all HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE!) I decided to step a little outside of the box and create something a little different. I have two projects to share with you today, each with completely different looks, which emphasizes just how versatile this set can be!

This first project uses two of my very favorite images from Daily Designs. A stylish bird on a branch and a stitched tag border. I also used a "just a note" sentiment that can be found in Daily Designs Sentiments.

The bird is stamped in Spring Moss ink, with the stitched border & sentiment being stamped in Dark Chocolate. I pierced a small hole with my paper piercer in the center of each stitch of the border to add a bit more detail. The image was punched out with my 1.75" circle punch and matted with a scalloped circle punched from Ripe Avocado cardstock. A vintage Spring Moss button tied with Rustic Jute button twine was added to the top for a little texture and dimension.

This notepad project has a little bit of a fun twist. I love to make these little notepads as gifts but I am always left scratching my head as to how to incorporate a pencil or pen and keep everything practical and professional looking. After a few hours of fiddling, I finally developed a notepad cover that integrates a special holding place for a writing instrument!

And because I love all of you SOOOO much, I even drew up the template and formatted it as an easy to print pdf so you can make your own versions of this too!

Here's a quick run down of just how easy this is to recreate in your own studio! First, print the box template onto your desired cardstock. Cut & score according to the template.

Adhere the long top tabs over onto the back of the template using Scor-tape or another sturdy adhesive. This is an important step to do first, because this needs to be done in order for you to be able to punch the circle necessary for the pen insert.

After folding in the top two tabs, invert a 1/2" circle punch and punch out the opening where indicated.

You will end up with something that looks like this.

Fold and adhere the two side tabs in to form the box sides, followed by the bottom tab to complete the box.

Measurements for scoring & cutting the actual notepad cover are included in the download above. I like it because it incorporates an extra section that creates a pocket for storing important papers, such as a small calender, receipts, appointment cards or anything else you can think of.

I used a 1.25" circle punch to create a notch in the back before I adhered the two edges to the center to form the pocket.

After adhering as indicated in the above photo, I added two of our notepads, one to the front cover and one to the back cover. You'll notice that the pen holder adheres nicely in place right next to the notepad.

A pencil or pen will now tuck perfectly into the designated spot!

A bit of embellishing is to the cover is all that is needed to complete this project!

One more note, I was able to create a matching pencil with a little modge podge and a few clothespins. I found that a 1" strip of our patterned paper, cut to the length of the pencil you are covering is usually a perfect size. Cover the back of the papr with modge podge and use several clothespins to hold the seam down in place while it dries. Once the modge podge is completely dry, the pencil can be sharpened normally.

My second project is in a completely different style than the first. It's girly, shimmery and sparkly all at the same time, perfect for any little girls in your life!

It was hard to capture all of the shimmer in a photograph, so you'll have to use your imagination a bit! This card layers our new pink shimmer cardstock (see post below) and aqua mist for a fun and vibrant color scheme!

To create the fun background, I started with our pink shimmer cardstock. This tag image from Daily Designs reminded me a bit of a flower, so I decided to use it by itself to build my pattern. I stamped it repeatedly using Hibiscus Burst ink. The contrast of the slight chalkiness you get with the pigment ink compared with the shimmer of the cardstock is too pretty to describe in words!

I followed up with a small floral image also from Daily Designs, stamped in Aqua Mist intermittently around the pink flowers.

The completed shimmery pattern is just stunning in real life!

For the focal point on the card I stamped two of the flourishes from Fancy Flourishes using Aqua Mist ink. As a tip, don't be afraid to put both flourishes on the block at the same time to ensure perfect placement and symmetry.

I then stamped this crown image, alos from Daily Designs, with Hibiscus Burst ink. The reason why I showed you this process for the focal point was to emphasize that even these small companion images can become a show stopper if you layer them over larger framing elements.

I added glitter borders above and below the princess focal point using Scor-tape and Prisma Glitter. All of the sparkle really adds amazing detail to this project.

Presentation of a gift for your little princess could not be complete without some super cute packaging! I used the NEW! Back to Basics Box template (available tonight) to create this pretty stack of packages.

There are actually three sizes of boxes included with this Click Simple template package, so you can use them individually or stack them for a bigger impact.

These boxes are as easy as 1-2-3 to put together, and you don't even need to worry about a closure. The integrated sizes fold down and tuck into a specially designed slot.

With the addition of some pretty ribbon and some bits of the background paper created for the card, I have a stunning package to present to the birthday girl!

sets, and I know you will too once you get them into your hot little

I love the idea of an all occasion set like this! I also love that it coordinates with the “tags” idea of past sets. There are so many adorable images included! Loved the notepad holder project. Thanks for the download.

I am always inclined to try the notebooks! And – they make great party favors — I can easily create a little kit of supplies for each seat and direct friends to quickly create a lasting, and useful, party favor!

What is not to love about today’s post. The pencil and pencil holder for the notebook is pure genius. The princess project is perfect for my little princess. This month I must say that I want it all. 🙂

This release has a little bit of a LOT of crafty goodness!! So very exciting! Stunning samples as usual. LOVE that princess crown with the swirls. And your new templates? FUN! Thanks for the download – you are too good to us!

Thank you so much for the pencil holder template! I really need to get out my Take Note set and play some more. I love the samples with Daily Designs. It also gives me some ideas for using my other tag sets. I’m so excited for the release tonight!

More incredible projects, Nichole!
I love the note pad (thanks for the nifty template, btw), and the princess gift boxes are supremely adorable.
I can definitely see me using that set for lots of fun girly things (I love girly stuff!)Maybe I’ll even squeeze in one or two for my son and my husband. Ha!

I love all the projects presented today. Love those boxes and how they close. The note pad with the pencil/pen holder is fabulous, I will be re-creating these in the near future. Thanks for the idea Nichole!

I love the “cake” boxes-that’s such a great idea and beautifully done. The notepad holder is really great! I love how you come up with ingenious ways of adding small touches like the pencil holder. It really makes the project POP and seem like you spent hours perfecting it! Thanks for giving us free downloads to make it easier to create one too. Looking forward to the exciting release! 🙂

Oh gosh! So much shimmer and shine! I love the second set of projects best. They’re perfect for my little princess. The boxes would make for perfect little party favors, filled with princess goodies, at her birthday party in March. 🙂

Your notepad is so awesome, I want to make one NOW!! Your clever ideas always keep me inspired!

BTW – I LOVE how you used the flourishes with the crown! And thank you for including the tip about putting them on the block at the same time – I would have kept fiddling around until I got them straight!

I love everything being released this month! It’s all so fresh and fun and pretty. I love the templates and will have to use them with all the other new goodies coming out tonight. What a great month for me to have a birthday!

I can’t wait to see the big reveal. I’m loving what I’m seeing in the peeks! I was trying to resist the new shimmer paper because I have way too much paper as it is . . .but after your project today, I can see that I must have that, too!

thanks for the free download, I love the notebooks and enjoy giving them as gifts and I’m so glad you came up with a template to add a pen/pencil to go with the notepads! Also this set looks like a lot of fun thanks for a chance to win!

I’m loving the new little note pad template, thanks for sharing it with us! Love everything I’ve seen with Alli’s newest set, it looks like another great go-to set…can’t wait to see the rest of it tomorrow!

Clean, simple and beautiful once again. I can’t wait to see the rest of Alli’s set and I love those boxes! Tonight the waiting is over and I finally will be able to wallow in the PTI goodness. This month has been awesome!

Daily Designs is amazing (from what I’ve seen so far!). I am head over heels in love with your princess ensamble. I could just imagine a little girl’s eyes lighting up when she received a gift like that.

Oh wow – I didn’t think anything could top your pocket notebook holder, but I LOVE this project. I’ll also have to be making that gorgeous gift set – my DD turns 4 in a few weeks and she is SUCH a girly girl. Nichole, you rock my world.

Hi Nichole, Once again you have made this months designs extraordinary. You have a fabulous eye for detail and I love every project you presented, especially the gift for David and the boxes. Congratulations once again, I will be sure to place an order.

This is SOOOOOO fun! I love the pretty paper, too! This is such a versatile set—thanks for bringing designers who are stampers and know what we love! The pencil holder is BRILLIANT—thanks for making it easy for all of us to look like we are pros! You do all the work and we just hit print!

I always love Alli’s back to basics designs–I can’t wait to see what else is in these two Daily Designs and Sentiments sets tomorrow at the release!!! I love the little princess card you made and can’t help but think my little 7 year old niece would just go to pieces over it. Maybe I will have to replicate it and send it to her!

Oh my gosh, I would love to win this! We’ve got lots of little girls bdays in the next months, so that shimmer paper would be fabulous! And that new background set is a must have! It looks like there are some great images in Alli’s new set, can’t wait to see it all!

I’m so sad it’s the 14th and this months sneak peeks are are at an end! Thank you so much for sharing the notepad cover and pencil project… I LOVE it !!! Not to mention the princess project. You girls ROCK !!!!

What wonderful projects and templaes and images! Thank you so much for the free download. I can’t wait to make a couple of the notebooks for myself, friends, family, and my kids’ teachers. I was also excited to read that the pencil was modge podged!!! I love that it matches:o)

Thank you so much for the pencil/pen holder to go on the notepad covers – I’ll be using that for a swap on SCS. Alli’s new set looks intriguing – can’t wait to see all of it! And what could be better than PINK SHIMMER CARDSTOCK?? Woo Hoo – I can’t wait to get my hands on some of that!!!

Amazing Projects! I am going to incorporate both of these super, creative ideas for the women in my church at the annual ladies conference this coming March. Thank you for the inspiration. I can’t wait to get started creating with this month’s new releases!! I LOVE PAPERTREY INK!!!!

I love Alli’s new set. The notepad sample you showed is wonderful and so very practical. I can see making several of these for friends. And that princess card! What a stunner. I am excited about the release.

This set looks like it has so many possibilities. The new box templates is too cute! I love how they come in so many sizes now to make it easier to customize. I wonder how easily the shimmer cardstock takes on ink? Is it glossy at all and does it affect the ink drying times?

I love Allie’s set and especially the image you used as a flower today. I don’t make many Easter of Fall themed cards, so didn’t want to buy a whole set. This set is perfect, giving me a sample of everything.

My 1st Grandbaby, Emma, was just born on Tuesday and I MUST get all these new goodies. Can’t hardly wait to get my mitts on them. Thank you for bring us such wonderful toys to play with. Rubber Hugz to you all.

Both projects are great today! I like the idea of making the boxes and putting a gift card in one. I am always looking for new ideas so giving a gift card to someone is fun and different. Thank you for always helping me out with your terrific ideas!

Your template for the notebook is perfect! I love your design for the pencil holder. I also like the look of the layered boxes. very cute and how fun would it be to get to open three different boxes? The pink shimmer CS is gorgeous. Can’t wait for tonight!

Oh my…it’s all so lovely. You bring the shimmer and shine every month with new stamps and samples that make me want to lock the door on my craft room and stay in for weeks trying out all the goodies. This month my excitement is off the charts. Can’t wait for all these new PTI stamps, papers, ribbon, and pens to arrive at my door. Thank you Nichole and design team…every month you continue to amaze, delight, and prove why PTI rocks!

yeah! I can’t wait to work with this set — it’s so versatile! And that notebook/pencil holder — oh heavens, that is something to be VERY thankful for! I can’t wait to use it to make gifts for teachers, etc. So cool!

I am soooooooo loving this set by Alli – I love the variety and can’t wait to see all those sentiments! This is sure to be a set I reach for constantly. And that pink shimmery cardstock – yummy! I also am loving that awesome notepad holder with pencil — I can’t wait to make that too! You guys are geniuses!

Thanks for the free template! It’s great! Alli’s new sets seem to be very versatile – who doesn’t love that in stamp sets?!! SO excited for new colors of shimmer cardstock too – it is SOOOO yummy! Excited for the release tonight.

I would be so thrilled to win Alli’s sets–they look so versatile, from your princess project (love it!) to all the projects she’s been showing (love that chick!). I also love the Petal background and the new shimmer cardstock! My credit card is ready for tonight! Thanks for all the inspiration!

As usual, PTI does not disappoint with this release! I love using my other “tag” stamp sets and I’m sure this new set will be great too! I love that I can use the set to make tags and coordinating cards!

My absolute favorite–love the versatility and so many sweet images. I always love Alli’s sets and have almost all of them–so glad she is back designing. I have never tried the notebook (even though I have intended to) but now will definitely order some today!

Oh that pad is fabulous! I’ll definitely be rooting out my Modge Podge to make a co-ordinating pencil too ;D
This set’s a sure winner because it can be used for so much as you’ve proved and can be incorporated into so many styles of papercrafting!
AWESOME!

I definitely need this stamps set. I checked out all the cards made by Alli and I love them all.
Thanks for the PDF. Really great looking notebook. And the card really shimmers. The boxes I need too.
Eveline.

The clever notepad cover and pen holder is fantastic! Thanks for the free download of the pattern. What terrific Valentine treats these could make. Love the new shimmer papers. What fun a new release time can be. The excitement will roll tonight!

I am a sucker for tags and this new set seems to cover all occasions. I think I will try to recreate the Note pad holder. It is very classy looking. I cannot wait to see the shimmery card stock. Thanks for sharing your creativity.

This is a must have for my PTI collection. I just love the possibilities and the examples that you created, Nichole, are fabulous. I especially like the pencil holder and thanks for sharing the pattern. PTI is at the top of my favorites list.

Those little stacking boxes are THE cutest!!! I love making my own gift packaging – so those are awesome. And the stampset-Daily Designs & sentiments- can’t wait to see the whole set! I have fallen in love with making those little notebooks!

That notepad cover is so cute, I love the way the pen sits there. I am always looking for sentiments these look like they will be very handy to add to my collection.
Thanks for the wonderful inspirations,
Marla

Very cool examples and sets! I usually don’t venture outside of cardmaking, BUT, I may try to recreate the note pad holder – I really appreciate the excellent tutorial and the template download. Thanks again for another tease!

I love the pencil holder template! Just recently I showed hubby a notepad holder I made using PTI’s already cut notepads and he loved it but the one thing he said was how cool it would be if I had a place to put the pen or pencil! Now I can. Can’t wait until tonight to order some more goodies!

love both projects! i have a “thing” for containers/boxes etc. that can be used as favors or for gift giving and this new template set looks like a must have. i think it’s going to be another big order month for pti!

Oh my, I am loving the new shimmery cardstock in soft colors so perfect for the girly projects that have been created. Definitely would like to try my hand at the boxes as well as the new shaped templates which are going to be perfect with these sets and the shimmery cardstock.

I just adore anything shimmery and pink! And those boxes would be so perfect for anyone who gives handmade gifts. The idea of personalizing them, then stacking them up and tying with beautiful ribbon.. so very creative in itself. Love that Alli’s set has big, bold graphics included that could be used for tags or just great design elements by themselves or made into a pattern:)

I love that this will be an all purpose go to stamp set and really appreciate all the effort that goes into each project you show us for inspiration. The pencil holder is awesome – thanks so much for the free template download! I’ll be making lots of these for gifts. I can’t wait for the release!

I’m lovin’ all the tag frames in this set. You can do SO many different things with one little tag frame. The smaller images I have seen so farare also super cute! A fantastic essential set for everyone!

Thanks for the “freebie” Nichole, you’re so good to us! I can think of so many uses for these sets…birthdays, teacher gifts, “just because” gifts :-)Beautiful packaging makes even the simplest gift extraordinary!

More cool ideas for projects other than cards – not that I don’t love making my cards! I always love to throw in a project other than a card when I have a craft party and this note/pen holder looks adorable. Thanks for the free template too!

I really love the idea of having that pencil right with the note pad. You know how frustrating it is when you go to write a note and have to spend way too much of your valuable time searching for a pencil.

This may be my favorite release! (i think i say this every month) But i have so many ideas, where to start first…LOL! Pink shimmer paper? NICE! Thanks for sharing your template for the notebook with pencil…I too, am addicted to making them… made all my co-workers one and received, ohhs & ahhs.

I love all of your projects! The princess set is just adorable. Alli’s new set is wonderful, I love the stitching, it reminds me of cross stitched project.
Thank you for the template. I definitely need to make some.

When I first saw the sneak peek for this set, I didn’t think I would “need” it this month. However, after each new project was revealed, I found myself undecided about ordering it now or later and each project made it harder and harder to resist. Well, the princess card was my undoing. I gotta have it! Your stamp sets and projects continue to inspire me each month.

I’m beginning to plan my daughter’s first ever sleepover birthday party and want a fun girly theme. Super thrilled to see the princess girly samples today!!!! I’m really loving the new Basics Boxes. They would make really cute treat boxes for the birthday party and the shimmer pink paper will be a must purchase as well. Thank you for the great ideas today!

I really like the fact that this set seems so versatile to incorporate many holidays/events in one set. I love the notepad holder too. Hopefully I can try that soon. Thanks for the chance to win and happy release party!

Adore that little note pad and pencil set!! Thanks for the download! Usually, its pretty easy to get a good handle on what the sets are through peeks and previes, but with these two sets, it seems there is a lot of variety…can’t wait until the reveal! :>

WOW, you never cease to amaze me. So excitng, I can’t wait to see the entire set. I would love to try one of Kim’s little onsie baby cards. That is so adorable with the little fastener snaps at the bottom.

One of my favorite sets from Papertrey is the holiday tag set from 2008…I love the ease of being able to create a perfect card or package embellishmet quickly. I can’t believe there will be one that I can use all year through! Fantastic!

I’ve always love the notepads and thank you for this neat free template. Ali’s new set is wonderful and I like how you combined the crown with the flourishes, so clever. Always great to see combinations of elements from multiple sets. Can’t way to use that pink shimmer cardstock!

Oh my gosh what fabulous two projects! I love the pencil and pad template! I can’t wait to try it with my cream notepads (I love PTI notepads!!!). And how I love the princess card and matching box set. I have a granddaughter that would absolutely love to get a card like that! The shimmer paper is over the top. I have never seen PINK shimmer paper, it must be delightful! I love making my own background paper/DP with PTI stamps. You (PTI and PTI designers) just keep amazing me with all the wonderful products…. thank you and keep up the great work!!!!

Nicole,
First off, this set is wonderful and your projects (as usual!) are so inspiring! But I think that it is generous of you to offer the free download! You could have easily added that at a template to purchase, because it is fantastic! I appreciate that you want your PTI customers to be “successful” crafters and would share something to make that happen! I love PTI!

Oh what fun!! I love sets that can be used for everything from tags to cards to packaging, and these look like they fit the bill beautifully! I can definitely see myself pairing them with the Notepad Cover and making tons of little thank you gifts for teachers, neighbors, friends…. can’t wait!

Everything in this release is just wonderful. Thank you so much for the template for the pen holder notebook. I love making notebooks so much! I’m so excited to see what is going to be new in next month’s anniversary countdown, too.

What a great template for the pad and pen holder! Thanks! Alli’s samples look great and I’m excited to see the whole set. I also appreciate the close ups of the back to basics box; what a fun way to close the box. I like that you don’t have to rip it open. Can’t wait to see the releases tonight!

I love how you’ve shown the versatility of these sets. That is very important to me, especially in today’s economy. So not only are they useful, but they are just so very pretty to use! And I love your projects, I want to try all of them.

I just ABSOLUTELY L-O-V-E the notepad. I can definitely see myself recreating it in the very near future, perhaps as soon as I get my January new release Papertrey Ink order. I can’t wait to place my order.

WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW!! Love notebook w/pencil holder – FANTASTIC! And thank you so much for the template!! The Click Simple boxes are a must-have! Especially since I’ve started baking and decorating cupcakes!! 😉

I’ve made at least 10 notepads this winter for gifts, and they all were appreciated so I’m very happy to add the new template to my “bag of tricks”–thanks so much. So many wonderful releases this month. It’s going to be hard to pick!

I am looking forward to seeing all of the images and sentiments for Daily Designs! Love that it is sized to fit with the punches! I am thrilled with the pencil holder you incorporated into the notebook holder! I am teaching a new violin student today, and needed a notebook for her to keep track of which songs and exercises to practice. Guess what I am rushing off to make!!!

OMG, I have a gift certificate that is absolutely burning a hole in my pocket & my husband said the other day “Why don’t you buy another set for yourself” Am I dreaming? I love this set. Love it!! I’m definitely in need of an all purpose, every day, every occasion set!! And, I love what you did with this Nichole, you totally ROCK!!!

I really like the boxes! Those are such a great addition to the template library.

I am also really pleased to see Alli’s set – I use a lot of PTI Tag sets all year round and I will love to have even more options!

As a side note, this release is really great! I love all of the stamps sets you and your team have introduced us to this week. I also appreciate the new products into the store – like the Spica pens and that beautiful silk ribbon! I can’t make it to the party tonight, but I hope you save some new things for me tomorrow morning!!

Thank you so much for the Notepad Cover with pencil holder Template and for the tip on covering a pencil with paper! Such a beautiful and practical display! The stamps look great for so many uses! I especially like the stitched border! The Back To Basics Boxes are just the perfect creative presentation! Sooo happy you are going to carry the shimmer spica pens!

Love your new notebook template with that pencil holder. At the moment, I feel a bit like Little Miss Scatterbrain and and making a little notepad for myself wouldn’t hurt 😉 Can’t wait to see the full reveal of Daily Designs and Petal Power!

I know I say this with every stamp sneak peak this realease but WOW! I love Ali’s new sets! Her sneak peaks this week have been more then awesome and now your notebook holder with the pencil holder just puts it right over the top! I’m thrilled about this set and the possibilities that I see with it! The pink and girly box set you created is simply stunning…perfect for a little girl or a big girl that appreciates her inner princess…I know I do! PTI never disappoints me, you all are amazing! =)

Thank goodness the templates are so inexpensive… I may have to skip all the other new goodies this month but I can treat myself a little bit with the new box templates. Can’t wait to try the notebook holder with pen slot – thanks Nichole!

Alli has had great samples of her set all week. I like your idea for the pen/pencil holder as that has always been my problem, what to do with the pen? So thank you for that download, I especially appreciate that and I never knew I could cover a pencil and it could sharpen OK. I will definately be trying that.

Wow Nichole – the reveal is always so much more than just new stamp sets – there is always inspiration beyond our wildest imaginings here! I love the Book/Pencil holder – thank you for sharing the download with us! I love the interpretation you gave to this stamp set – the little girl’s ensemble is absolutely beautiful – love the new shimmer paper!

I love the incorporated pencil holder – I attempted something but it wasn’t nearly as sophisticated. The stamp set is so cute, and I love the pink shimmer paper. There are just too many great products this month, I won’t know where to start!!

Thank you for the notepad/pencil holder tutorial and template! That is so clever and I can’t wait to use it. I love the stamped pink shimmer cardstock technique – so pretty! (and yummy colors) The new sets are great! 🙂

I LOVE those notebooks, the covers, love the pencil holder. I bought 40 of those notebooks within the first month of their release. Can’t wait to use the pencil holder template. I love the petal power background as well. You guys never fail.

LOVE the pad project = those are on my list to make for Christmas – thanks for the great project sheet! Can’t wait for the release of all the new goodies and thanks as usual for the opportunity to win goodies!

Every month I say that it just can’t get any better and each month you hit a homerun! I would love to make this little notepad. Thanks for the PDF. I adore your projects. And my little princess granddaughter would benefit from the princess set. Thank you.
Cheryl Sims

That notepad is to die for!! I can’t wait to make one! My kids will love making these to give their teachers. The pencil/pen holder is pure genius! I love the how the little crown really takes center stage, even though it is so small. What a great set!

I always love Alli’s sets and this one looks spectacular. I am in love with the little bird. I believe I will have to try the notebook with the pencil attached. Thanks so much for creating and sharing this with us. I can’t wait for this evening. Open, open, open.

Nicole, the notepad project is simply genius! I love making covers for note pads as gifts..this is just so much better with the pencil holders~thx for the download. The ‘princess’ card and gift boxes are so adorable. January’s Release is awesome. Can’t wait to join in the fun tonight!

I am going to love this versatile set…I can’t wait to get it…Your projects were just wonderful, especially the notpad with the pencil holder.Thank you so much for the free download…it is very mucha appreciated.

I love the template for the note pads. I am always buying note pads for gifts and your template will allow me to give them my own special touch! You and your design have really inspired me. Thank you! I am so excited for your entire release tonight. See you soon.

I only own one PTI set, but that is definitely going to change with this release! So many beautiful sets, how’s a girl to choose? Hope you stocked up ladies! Have a feeling this release is going to sell out early!

i’m so glad that alli is back designing stamps for all of us to play with! i just love her designs! the projects today are pure brilliance!! thank you for the chance to win. this month is by far the best yet!

Each month as I see the new releases, I think to myself, it can’t get any better, yet each month, it continues to get better. I am just amazed at all the thought, love and care that go into designing these sets. Can’t wait for tonight to see the full reveal.

My niece, sister and I are in a challenge to make 100 cards and layouts each before buying any paper craft stuff. I keep sending me niece emails and IMs saying, “Must buy PTI,” and she keeps sending one back telling me to be strong. If I win, I won’t have to be strong! Thank you for the opportunity to win!

I love the new way to attach the pencil to the notebook. Thanks for sharing your idea!

Having twin girls that princess crown could come in really useful 🙂 I just have to say how much I love Jessica Witty’s button tree cards! They are to die for and I cannot wait to try my hand at some of those too. looking forward to the release tonight!

Pink and shimmer…oh my goodness! I love this!! I am loving the princess card! Such a cute idea! And I love the pad cover with the pencil included! What a great gift idea!! I think this sneak peak is my favorite!!

I like the idea of this set and look forward to seeing it at the release party tonight. Can’t wait to make the pencil holder notebook (thanks for the download) and the princess project is adorable. Both projects gave me a lot of ideas.

Well Im lucky 612 in the coments chances are not good but never mind I love the new stamp sets and the color combos have been awsome also love the new ribbon and that it can be colored with copics.If I don’t get to join have a great party its hard with our time difference as Im in Australia.Cant wait to get out the trusty credit card HA HA

OMG – I can hardly stand it for much longer – I think you saved the best for last – and pink shimmer paper to boot! I don’t even know where to start this month. It would certainly be a good month to win since I can’t make up my mind. Thanks for much for all your inspiration and love!

I’m trying to keep my Christmas mojo going to help me get ahead on this year’s gifts. You have some great gift ideas there! One of my favourite gifts to give is a box full of similarly themed items, tailored to the person receiving the gift. The Back to Basics Box has my mind a flutter!

Love all the new sets! Really love the notepad cover with the pencil holder. It would make a great little gift for many people in our lives. Really looking forward to the releases tonight! PTI rocks!!!!

I have my own little “princess”, so the princess card is my favorite! That would definitely be well used. Great notepad holder too; I have yet to make one and hope to do so soon. I struggle with using small stamps as a focal point – thanks for all the inspiration!

Oh my goodness- these daily designs will be a perfect all-year stamp set addition to my collection! I’ve been waiting for a all season tag set for a while and I’m so glad it’s coming out this month! And the shimmer papers look beautiful! Thanks PTI!

I am so glad this post is here. I bought the notepads, but then I couldn’t figure how to keep a pen or pencil with the notepad set. YOU solved that problem beautifully! And the pencil covering…perfect! the stacked boxes are great, but the little touch of the rhinestones on the ribbon was IT!

The Papertrey Radio program is a really neat idea…I could really get into walking and listening to some great ideas / instructions for techniques! I would be interested in hearing what inspires people for their card ideas. Thanks!

I’ve just received one of these fabulous little notpad holders with a pen as a gift along with the Everyday Button Bits stamp set for my birthday … Love them both! Thank you for sharing your tutorial on the pen holder – going to give it a go myself later today.

Some may be wicked, and some may be despicable. Only when I put myself in their position did I know they are more miserable than I. So forgive all that you have met, no matter what kind of persons they are.

Dear Nichole,
I love your work. I have an scrapbook forum in Spanish (I am from Barcelona) where we offer crops online for free every Friday. Today we are going to show how to make a memo note to hang on the fridge, and your pen holder is perfect to finish the project. I just want to ask you permision to use it tonight in http://www.scrapate.com/forum/ (you have to register, it is totaly private and free). Thank you very much!
Be happy!
